-Ruxton. on the Northern Central 70.

-Ruxton, on the Northern Central road, q
short distance above Lake Roland, promises to
become n most attractive place for country resi-
dences Several very handsome cottages have
already been built and others are to be erected.
This property purchased some time ago by
ex.Judge VIM. A. Fisher, who has had it laid off
in lots for villa sites. The location is charming.
The receivers of the Maryland Central rail-
road have bought from the heirs of DR.. Munnik-
huysen strip of land, 20 feet wide, on the north
west side of Belar station, on which they intend
to construct additional sidings for the accommo-
dation of the increased business at that station.
A wide avenue will be laid off in order to give
facilities for loading and unloading freight.
1t appears now, as we thought it would,
that the managers Of the Prohibition camp meet
ing misrepresented Sheriff Miller when they charg-
ed him with refusing to send officer to the camp.
The Sheriff did not use the language that was i'm
puted to him when approached on the subject, so
it is plain that this was little bit OF 'intemper-
ate" temperance on the part of the camp-meeting
officers.
The country through which the Maryland
Central railroad passes never looked more attrac-
tive than it does to-day, and ride over the road
would we'll repay any lover of Nature. Usually
at this season of the year the fields have scared
and brown appearance, but now they are green
and fresh looking as in spring and the rich color
of the waving corn adds an additional charm to
over the road just at this time.
The harvest home festival held at the Rocks
of Deer Creek on Thursday and Friday of last
week, did not attract very large crowds, owing no
doubt, to the intense heat then prevailing. The
accommodations about The Rocks are not what
they should be and the otherwise attractiveness
of the place is marred by the crude and unfinished
appearance of the surroundings. 1t might be made
one of the most beautiful places in Maryland by
the display of some taste and the outlay of some
money.
Mr.. Robert R. Roberts, eldest son of Lewis
J. Roberts, ESQ.,, died at his residence, Sherwood,
N. C. R. R., on Thursday afternoon, after weeks
illness from typhoid dysentery, aged % years.
For some years Mr.. Roberts had been connected
with the Diamond Match Company in Baltimore,
and was highly esteemed for his many excellent
qualities. He leaves wife, the daughter of Mr..
Francis M. Craumer, of Towsontown, and three
children. His death was terrible shock to his
family and friends.
DIR. C. A. Rutledge, who bought the old
homestead and portion of the estate of the late
E. Stanley Rogers, near the Rocks of Deer Creek,
will engage extensively in canning this season.
In addition to his canning house for putting up
corn, he is just completing one for packing toma-
toes exclusively. In connection with the latter
he is also putting in machinery for grinding corn
meal, chop, &C., which he will run by steam The
DR.. displays great deal of enterprise and is
carrying on large business.

A verv Good Ghost Story Told in Very

A Very Good Ghost Story Told In Very
Bad Style.-A Baltimore county correspondent,
who signs himself "T. L. b. gives the following
ghost story to the Baltimore Herald: "There is
a house in Baltimore County which has chronic
case of spooks there has been no one lived in the
house for fourteen years Every night at nine
O'Clock there is seen by any one who goes into the
house an old lady in black and two little children
in white who wonder through the house dureng
the night. In the fourth story back room there
is report of pistol heard three times every
night at twelve O'clock two Men are seen comeing
out the room after the report is heard and go down
stairs where they meet q man in white the three
90 back in the same room and loud laughing is
heard. About one O'clock foot steps of horse
are heard at the door the door fys open and man
walks in who goes to the same room. Loud groans
are heard in the top of house and if any one goes
Where the Nois is heard they hear it in the ceer.
Rafting of chains are heard in all the halls OF the
house. A dog is seen sometimes When he is seen
he has red eyes and his tail is a ball of fire. An
old man often appears and goes to the fourth floor
back room and stands pointing to the floor.
"About two years ago two colored men went to
spend a night with the spooks shortly after Mid
night they were very much surprised to find them
selves thrown from the second story window into
the bushes with slight hurt And very bad
seear they left as soon as possible. The house is
said to be filed with Fine furniture and each peese
is said to be in its proper place. The stable is
also said to be stacked with Hay and Corn. Which
the Rats have had for fude for many Years."

A Young Wife Wants a Divorce for her
Aged Spouse Rachel Furstenburg has brought
suit for divorce in the Baltimore county Circuit
Court against her husband, Levi Furstenburg, who
lives in Baltimore city but who owns large
amount of properly in the 18th district and other
parts of this county. She asks that suitable pro-
vision be made for her maintenance and for the
custody of their two children. The court is also
asked to set aside certain deeds and to issue an
injunction restraining the defendant from aliening
any of his property during the pending suit. The
bill of complaint recites that the parties were mar
ried in January, 1888; that two children have
been born of their marriage, and she charges the
defendant with having ill-treated her, with hav-
ing, by intimidation, procured her signature to a
deed by which he Invested himself of the fee-sim-
pie title to a large amount of property in Balti-
more county, receiving from the grantee of the
deed lease of the same property at a rent of one
cent, by which transaction she has been deprived
of her interest in said property through its con-
version from real estate to personal estate. A
somewhat similar suit was instituted by the same
plaintiff against the same defendant in March,
1888, minus the petition for divorce, the parties
having then been married less than three months.

Nearly one hundred Baltimore county Demo-
Gratis, who are dissatisfied with the ticket nomi-
mated here on the 25th of July, held meeting
in Baltimore, on Saturday last, to take into con-
sideration the nomination of an Independent

Rogers, of the Sd district presided, and Mr.. Fred
Raphel, of the 18th district, acted as secretary.
Among those reported present by the Baltimore
papers were DR.. Thos. B. Hall, Of the 18th dis
trct, who presided at the Democratic convention !;
Mr.. L. M. Bacon, of the County Clerks Office (;

cided to raise the sum of $1,000 with which to
start an dependent Democratic organ in Towson-
town. The meeting then adjourned.

old dreams of riches, and all the way Of
that wealth and increase is TO
them an open book. Such men
do not need to be told the ad-
vantages that San Antonio presents
to manufacturing capital and brains.
They recognize these things ut aglanGe,
and are ready to stand shoulder to
shoulder with the capital Of this city in
making San Antonio the great workshop
Of Texas. Their presentations at home,
among the young, live manufactures OF
CinCiT natl, will turn the attention oil
practical men this way, and IL will be
our fault If these advantages are not
reaped by us. Every added manufacture
ing plant will increase the value OF real
estate for miles around this city. The
